Hakim's Odyssey

From Syria to Turkey
Publisher Delcourt
COLLECTION Encrages
SERIES Hakim's Odyssey
VOLUME 1
Age 9-12All Ages
Halfway between hope and violence, this is a real-life story of how war can force you to leave the land you love behind and turn you into a refugee.

The true story of Hakim, a young Syrian who had to flee his home to become a "refugee." A powerful, moving look at what it means to be human in a world that often seems to have forgotten all sense of humanity. The true story of a man who had to leave it all behind: family, friends, his own business... because war had broken out, because he'd been tortured, because the country next door seemed to hold out the promise of safety and a future.
